On Tuesday the bombardment was successfully renewed. During the course of the fighting the enemy's aeroplanes went up and attacked our aircraft. They were forced to retreat, however. In the Terragnole Valley detachments of the enemy's Infantry at-i tempted to approach our positions. | By counter" attacks, made by our force, they were repulsed and forced to retreat, leaving some prisoners in our hands. In the Sugana Valley our artillery fired on the railway station at Le- lico where I lie movpir-enls of troops were reported. ' On the Asiago Plateau the enemy's aeroplanes were forced to land. A pilot was captured'.

In these the., remain three days and three nights at a stretch. No fires are lighted nor worrying as to the possible fate of the British and French expeditionary forces operating north from Saloniki is brought directly from tbe scene of operations by Dr. W. D.

He said | >• that the expeditionary forces in Greece, together with the Canadian hospital and all Allied civilians who may be around Saloniki, are absolutely safe, and it is only a most overwhelming force which could -ever hope to drive the British back to the sea coast, and that even there the enemy would find such an obstacle in the Britisli fleet that it would be a hopeless task to attempt to drive the Allies into the sea. The conformation of the land to the north of Saloniki gives this confidence to Dr. Sharpe. "In the Vardar Valley there are huge stretches of marsh," he stated, "back of that are the highlands. Now it only remains for the British and French to make a successful crossing of Iho marshes nnd to establish themselves In the highlands to make 11 almost Impossible for anything but an overwhelming force to follov them, and as yet the enemy haven't such a force available. There are three bridges crossing the marsh, and Ihe British and French are In control of these. The highlands are sufficiently far from Saloniki to give ihe Allies plenty of territory in whlcw lo mass a huge army for the advance back Into Serbia and Bulgaria, but 1 don't think there Is much use of them beginning the advance until they have al li a il a half mlllllon men. The Allies Replied Effectively To The Firing From The Enemy. London, Dec. 22.—An official report states that during the last 24 hours there has been artillery activity in many positions along the front, principally about Flrcourt, on both sides of the I.abasse Canal and at Ypres. Our artillery effectively replied in every instance, o MARY PICKFORD IN" ROLE OF HALF-BREED GIRL Interesting Play Presented Al West" holme Will Be Repeated Toni irht. ply. The Greek people don't wan! fo fight at all, because they are not a fighting race like the Bulgarians. But the Greek army Is pro-German, simply because it Is manned by Gorman officers, as is the Bulgarian army. Except for German officers the Bulgarian army would never have fought with the Germans. Before the war broke out, the people of Bulgaria -were rioting on the streets of Sofia, asking to ligh\ with the Allies, but the situation became hard to handle when German officers were placed in charge of .the army from the field- marshall down. No, I do not think such a condition is apt to be repeated in Greece, because the Greek people are not fighters. They are holding themselves at a price, trying to get the most out of it without fighting." ; British losses, Dr. Sharpe believes, I cannot be great. When he left Ser-' bia, the only object of the British and French forces was to guard the lines to enable the Serbian army to escape into Albania and Montenegro. This much was largely accomplished, to the satisfaction of the Serbian offi- j r-nls, who realized the difficulty of! getting a large fighting army into the j country upon so short a notice.
